共轭亚油酸对高脂血症大鼠脂质代谢及visfatin基因表达水平的影响

目的建立高脂血症大鼠模型,分析共轭亚油酸（CLA）对其脂质代谢和visfatin基因表达水平的影响,为进一步研究CLA对脂肪代谢的调控机制奠定基础。方法用高脂饲料饲喂雄性Wistar大鼠,4周后断尾采血测定血清甘油三酯（TG）、总胆固醇（CHO）和血糖（GLU）含量,将构建成功的高脂血症大鼠分为实验组和对照组,实验组每天定时灌胃CLA（0.8 mL/0.1 kg）,每周定时称重,记录采食量;4周后眼球采血,测定血清中GLU、CHO、TG、低密度脂蛋白（LDL）、高密度脂蛋白（HDL）水平;断颈处死大鼠,分离体脂并提取肝脏总RNA,半定量RT-PCR分析visfatin基因表达水平。结果高脂饲料饲喂4周后,模型组大鼠血清TG、CHO、GLU明显高于对照组大鼠（P〈0.05）,表明高脂大鼠模型构建成功。灌胃CLA 4周后,实验组大鼠体重、体脂和采食量低于对照组大鼠（P〈0.05）,血清中GLU、CHO、TG、LDL含量明显降低,但实验组HDL浓度升高。RT-PCR实验结果表明,实验组大鼠visfatin基因表达水平明显低于对照组大鼠（P〈0.05）。结论CLA能降低高脂血症大鼠摄食量,改善高血脂大鼠脂质代谢,并能降低visfatin基因的表达水平。

Effect of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) on Lipid Metabolism and Expression of Visfatin Gene in Rats with Hyperlipidemia

Objective To establish a rat model of hyperlipidemia and analyze the effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on lipid metabolism and expression of visfatin gene. Method High fat diet was used to establish the hyperlipidemia rat model. Blood was taken at four weeks after high fat diet feeding to analyze the level of glucose (GLU), cholesterol (CHO) and triglyeride(TG). The rats were divided into experimental group and control group after the hyperlipidemia rat model was established successfully. The experimental group rats were treated with CLA(0.8 mL /0.1 kg)orally for four weeks. The food intake and body weight were recorded. The rats were sacrificed, and both body fat and serum lipid levels were measured. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was used to measure the expression level of visfatin mRNA. Result The hyperlipidemic rat models were induced by high fat diet successfully. The body weight, food intake and body fat in the rats of CLA experiment group were significantly decreased compared with that of the control group (P< 0.05). The level of GLU, CHO, TG and LDL in the experimental group were significantly lower than that in the control group (P< 0.05), but the serum HDL-C was increased in the experimental group. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR demonstrated that the expression level of visfatin gene of the experimental group was lower than that in the control group. Conclusion CLA can reduce the expression of visfatin gene and improve the lipid metabolism in hyperlipidemic rats.
